This painting depicts Llyn Dinas, a lake in Snowdonia just to the north of Beddgelert. The few existing sources of published information about Elsie McNaught indicate that she was a student at the Slade School before the First World War. The Studio Magazine’s ‘Art School Notes’ lists her as among the Slade students who received a distinction in drawing for the year 1907–1908 (Vol.44, no.185, August 1908, p.235), and Emma Chambers’ study on the Slade’s Summer composition competitions highlights McNaught’s 'A Frieze of Figures Standing in a Landscape' for an unrecorded composition title in 1910.
